Be interested to learn what the budget is for the football program at Ohio State!!!!

NCAA rules limit the number of track coaches a program can have on staff. They can have an additional coach if they are a volunteer for pole vault only. This is why any paid college pole vault coach is also coaching other events.

11.7.2 Bowl subdivision Football. [FBs] There shall be a limit of one head coach, nine assistant coaches and four graduate assistant coaches who may be employed by an institution in bowl subdivision football.

*Service academies get 4 more coaches if they chose

Track and field is allowed 6 paid coaches and as many as 7 volunteers as long as one is a pole vault coach, however, without the pole vault coach they get 6 volunteers.

11.7.4.2.3.3 Volunteer Coach—Cross Country/Track and Field. An institution that sponsors cross country, indoor track and field, or outdoor track and field as separate sports may use the services of one volunteer coach for each of the sports that it sponsors. Each volunteer coach may coach studentathletes in any of the three sports throughout the academic year. (Adopted: 4/27/00 effective 8/1/00)11.7.4.2.3.4 Volunteer Coach—Track and Field—Pole Vault. An institution that competes in pole vault may use the services of one additional volunteer coach (to coach both genders), limited to coaching pole vault. (Adopted: 1/12/04)

So theoretically football could have 20 coaches while track and field could have 19, just 7 of the track and field coaches are not paid.

Realistically though most football programs will use most of those 20 allowed payed football coaches. While well funded track and field programs will have the 6 paid coaches, 3 or 4 volunteers, and maybe 1 or 2 graduate assistants.
